Farewell, November!

It is full on Christmas posts & outfits from here on out! :) Tomorrow we will be kicking off our own 25 Days of Christmas! (I'm sure it will be more like 18 ..but I'll do mah best) FREE Christmas printables, gift guides, holiday outfits, recipes & other festive ramblings to come!

I
had a lot of questions emailed to me about our wreaths, so I wanted to
share this It does seem like a pain in the ass task to buy & hang
wreaths in all the windows, but it really isn't so bad! We bought real,
fir wreaths from the Christmas Tree Farm to put on the front doors...
but the rest? $2.50 fake wreaths from WalMart. They just needed a little
fluffing! Rather than pay an additional $2 per window for hangers, the
wreaths are attached with fishing wire looped around the locks on the
inside. Clearly it was easy for me since Harper & I just stood around watching my husband do all the work... he may have a different opinion! :)

I wish I had an unlimited exterior illumination budget so we could go fully Griswold style on our house.

One last thing. I wanted to give a huge THANK YOU to everyone who has purchased chalkboard printsfrom my etsy shop! It is such an overwhelming feeling of success & happiness to know that you all want to have my hand drawn artwork in your homes! If you want to share a picture of your framed chalk art, upload on instagram use hashtag #JGRockChalk so that I can see them all!! :) And don't forget, if you are purchasing, be sure to use coupon code 30OFFCHALK for a 30% discount off the listed price!

The wreaths are on the outside. When my husband opened each window from the inside, he looped the wire around the lock and through the crack of where it opens while holding the wreath on the outside, then tied it up! :)

Yay for Christmas time!!! Operation FaLaLaLaLa is in full affect in my house too!!! LOVE IT. Quick question though, what kind of camera do you use for all your pictures? Love your blog and that little Harper is adorable. Merry Christmas, shitters full!!!!
